So I had to get a new EVO due to a bad refurbished phone... Had a bum screen. So it came with gingerbread... And last nite I sat down to root it and get back to flashing and well.... I guess it had a bad Nand and won't take the root process. I've tried a couple different computers hoping... But oh well. Guess I gotta find something wrong and try another phone... Thanks for letting me vent.

Are you trying with revolutionary?
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium
Yeah I am... It would not work... Went to the revolutionary irc and it was confirmed the error I was getting was that the Nand couldn't be written too. So its a bad Nand. Bummer.

Unfortunately the replacement phone came with the you update. Guess I'm really gonna have to find something wrong with it so I can exchange it.

Mine too, don't think it's anything to be concerned about. my first thought was "crap! I flashed something wrong!" Then I realized I was using my phone just fine and calmed down..
Superclean 2.1... aka Froyo... Thanks devs!!
No worries, just a modifcation I made for android market reasons.
Ah ok. ya I thought I flashed wrong something too. thanks for all your quick replies

Like the particular store or just in general?
Because if its just that particular store, cancel the order and go to a different one.
Losing root for who knows how long is life ending.
Maybe ill do that

There's been some random reports of bootloaders for replacement phones being s-off.
Best of luck
Ya my mic went out while back ago and they said its embedded to the board so it couldnt be swapped, had to get a replacement. Good luck on your replacement!
Living without root will be tough, I was running mikg 2.2, goin back to normal is gonna suck

I just got my replacement evo....it came s-off!!!
We're comin from a pure power source.
So these buttons randomly just stopped working on my phone. IM sure they were working earlier today but it's weird that there all in a straight line. I'm not sure if this is ROM or kernel related but does anyone know what may be the problem?I tried rebooting that didn't help.

That happened to me on CM7, I just reflashed the Rom and it started working again.

Good luck with software fix. I had the same problem and brought it to the repair center. Sprint fixed it for free.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using Tapatalk 2
If software doesn't fix it you'll just need your keyboard replaced. Its an easy fix, free if you have TEP, $35 if you don't.
On the off chance they don't have the parts (they should, we have so many at my store), they'll offer to exchange but I would be hesitant to do that. The quality of the epic refurbs we've gotten in lately has been sub par. In that case, I would call another repair center and see if they have the part.

Thanks for all the tips and advice but luckily flashing CM7 fixed I for me =) lol. Freaked the hell out of me at first though.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
So after flashing cm7 for a day the problem came back. So I'm guessing it may be more phone related then ROM related. I reflashed cm7 and eventually it got all fixed.
Does anyone know the actual reason why this does happen?

So asurion is saying I'm going to get an htc evo− standard that means I'm getting the og right? Not the 3d
Sent from my PC36100 using xda app-developers app
I read people post before of getting EVO 3d because they stop making the og EVO. So you may not getting og EVO.

If I'm not mistaken, the OG and 3D use different batteries.

I was just wondering the same thing. My wife's phone is shattered and haven't had time or wanted to file a claim (would be #3-$300) and I don't want to file one just for the same EVO. Due for an upgrade in the summer so I might hold off on that or buy a phone off craigslist
